Election financing

Posted: November 11, 2012 - 10:38pm

Congratulations to Representative Rick Nolan! I, with great hope, agree that your desire to institute “public financing” for elections is exciting!

The Supreme Court, in all its wisdom, opened up “Pandora’s Box” with its decision that corporations, and private funding, are the same as personal donations.

Those billions that they did “donate” surely could be used in a more humane way.

I've noticed that before too, in the past. Another thing to look at is the "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" counts. Between six and eight a.m., the no's jump dramatically. You can almost set your clocks by these people. I guess that's the time before they go off to their gov't jobs.

Guys

You're adjusting to the " New Normal' very well.
You all get gold stickers for your efforts.

We must change our attitudes and learn to get on and
ride in the wagon instead pulling/pushing it.

You may went to join the Obama campaign that continues
now to pass all his projects.
Well, that maybe carrying it too far.

I'm interested how they handle the fiscal cliff and then
we can see economic growth. You know grow the economy
5-6 %.
Get used to the word "fair share".
